While Namco&#8217;s 1984 side-scroller Pac-Land doesn&#8217;t get mentioned enough in U.S. gaming circles, you&#8217;d be surprised at how many developers around the world were influenced and inspired by it. <\/p>\n<p>The new Pac-Sprites have been added to <a href=\"gfxgen_fightsize.php\">the main image generator<\/a>, where I made the pic at the top of the post.<\/p>\n<p>(edit: note from earlier in the day)<br \/>\nSorry for the lateness, I&#8217;ll be adding it and it the variants later tonight. The tags in the blog post are a clue.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Hey, did you see the all-new Pac-Man cartoon series&#8217; debut on YouTube today?

Really good voices and fun music, too! In a better world, this would be on Saturday Morning TV to spread more Pac-Man Fever around even more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New sprite of Pac-Man in his Pac-Land stance (and hat) added to the site!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,16,13],"tags":[575,98],"class_list":["post-3870","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-updates-sb","category-sitenewsmain","category-updates","tag-pac-land","tag-pac-man"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3870","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3870"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3870\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3874,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3870\/revisions\/3874"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
